HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR RELATIONSHIPS
Is someone pushing your buttons? It could be your spouse, someone at work, your parents or sibling, or your children. Moist of us have at least one person in our life whose behavior triggers a negative response in us.
Whether your partner leaves clothes on the floor or your boss is condescending or your kids talk back to you, it feels like there is nothing you can do about it.
The only thing you CAN change is your reaction to their behavior or words.
I'm not saying their behavior is acceptable. But wouldn't it feel good not to react at all? You've asked many, many times, but they still leave a mess in the bathroom or leave the cap off the toothpaste, etc.
Sometimes you are even embarrassed by the strong negative response you have to their actions and behavior. You feel the anger brewing inside, you clench your fists, grit your teeth and it's all you can do to keep from screaming. Sometimes words you never meant to say pop out of your mouth. Hurtful words that you feel bad about later. But what if it's not really about clothing left on the floor? What might it be about instead? What is actually fueling your response?
You can rewire those auto responses, your hot buttons, so they are not available to be pushed. You can easily do this rewiring with Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT).
You can't change their behavior but you can change your reaction to their behavior.
It is your choice! What do you choose?
